Part Two, Interiors and Furniture, includes furnishings produced by Galerie Lafayette and DIM. Part Three, Metalwork and Jewelry, features tea sets by Josef Hoffmann and Cartier jewels. Part Four, Ceramics, includes a rich collection of Danish and Hungarian porcelain and pieces crafted by the School of Ceramics in Faenza. Part Five, Glass, includes a collection of glassware from makers of Bohemian crystal. Part Six focuses on lace, embroidery, printed paper, and textiles, including wallpapers by the Wiener Werkstätte.
